Pros

Benefits start from the first day. You never have to worry about "what to wear". Job Security. Education benefits are amazing. 100 per cent tuition assistance.

Cons

Uniforms. Can not plan a personal life more than a day in advance. You have no control over your life. While Ed benefits are great, you never have enough time to actually take classes. Talking to "management" is a fruitless task. In other words what you say to them doesn't matter. And don't bother making a decision, because they will just make their own, expect you to accomplish their decision, penalize you when you can't get it done and then ask when you will make a decision. The "managers" don't actually have to know how to do the job of the people they try to manage in order to be put in the position they are, just by their position only.

Pros

It is what you make out of it. You'll have good days and bad days. It's all dependent on your leadership. That can make or break the command. Medical is free, but can take a while to get seen. You'll meet a lot of new people and could travel around the world depending on your duty station. Education benefits and training.

Cons

Medical can take a while to get seen, unless it's an emergency. If you're single, the pay isn't that great, but you don't have to much to worry about for bills if you live on base. If you're on sea duty billet, your work life balance will be terrible.
